AN ENrERPRlsINa TOWN.

Thomas c. Griffitts, Of Spokane Falls,
Washington Territory, spent n day in
Bozeman last week in attendance upon
court. Mr.. Griffitts went to Spokane five
years ago when the town numbered but
a few hundred inhabitants. Inthat time
he has watched it grow to 5000 souls;
watched it grow with almost phenomenal
rapidity, until now Spokane is synona-
nous with ali that is enterprising. Fine
graded streets, an ope, house, and pub
lie improvements of every kind have
been built by the energetic inhabitants.
At recent city election the city polled
over l 800 votes, two tickets being in the
field; one in favor of further improve
ments and the other against. 1t is need
less to say that the ticket for further i'm
provements carried by handsome ma
jority.
Spokane Falls is by no manner of
means as favorably situated as Bozeman;
its tributary surroundings are circum-
scribed, and it's resources are mainly pent
up in water power; yet IN short space
of time it ha3 grown to magnificent pro-
portions, and. nearly iour-fifths of the
emigrsnts select it as their destination.
The writer well remembers one of the
first settlers of that town, who settled
there when it was a mere trading post in
| 1878. To this one man great deal OF
| its growth and its present proud position
can be attributed. He became very
wealthy and died two years ago, yet he
left legacy to the city of handsome bus
mess blocks, and reputation of indefat-
igable industr, and enterprise that will
keep his memory green as long as Spokane
exists. spokane has great and glorious
future before it. The pioneers of the
city are making it nucleus for large
city by forcing -he eity's growth, and
thereby making it attractive to strangen
and capitalists.

We understand that large sized
"kick" is being formed in Helena over
the fact that Gallatin county is reaping a

the sum so paid will not reach the
amount paid by the territory for bear
scalps last year.

We infer from the various comments
made by the territorial press regarding
N. Story's article fully setting forth his
cattle losses, that oil are inclined to take
his statements with a grain of salt Mr..
Story may have exaggerated his losses
having written the article while laborinQ
under the excitement which the sppal-
ing and unnecessary loss occasioned; but
in the main it will be found correct, and
the inuendoes thrown out by many pa
pers are uncalled for and unjust.

and value. We learn the work is to lie

MAUD GRANGER.

To this noted actress Bozeman paid
homage by attending her performances
with full and appreciative house, which
amid the emotional situations gazed in
rapt attention at the wonderful powers
of this magnificent actress, and when
the curtain fell applauded to the echo.
As Cora, the Creole, Miss Granger did
the finest acting that has ever been wit
messed in this city, and won place IN
the hearts of Bozeman audience that
the noted Jauneschek did not secure. 1t
was an exhibition of dramatic talent re
served heretofore for large eastern cities.
While the play, a French emotional dra-
ma. is simple in plot, 1t abounded in ex-
citing situations. Miss Granger being the
central figure.
Cora, the Creole, is taken to France,
where, in order to induce her lover to
marry her, she carries on Irritation with
other men. This drives the lover insane.
ly jealous, and in quarrel he seizes his
mistress's pistol from her hand and
shoots her in the head, the ugly scar dis.
figuring her for life. He is arrested, and
for five years serves a sentence of penal
servitude in the galleys of Toulon. In
the meanwhile Cora becomes the pro.
prietress of fashionoble gambling salo,
in Paris, and eight years after the scene
of the first act, she confronts her former
lover in her own salon, who is taken
there by his rich father-in-law, q few
weeks after his marriage to wealthy
and beautiful Parisienne. After vainl,
enieavoring to regain his affections sht
has the man she loves with such in
tense passion; and hates as intensely
as she loves, recommitted to Jail. A few
moments before he is to be re conveyed
to Toulon, she appears in the prison ant

/ Her portrayal of the passionate Creol,
girl, her demoniacal fury and outbreak
of hate, and under the great love sh

W. H. Fry, who four years ago made
precarious living in practicing law, was
elected county attorney,in new Dakota
county last fall. While engaged in try

the concluding remark of the opposing

with good voice, a new comic song with
great effect.

During the most thrilling scene in the
last act, something struck spectator as
irresistably funny and it was with much
difficulty that he controlled his risibles,
much to the annoyance of that part of
the audience who were intensely inter-
ested in the play.
AT an important juncture of the play
the leading gentleman backed up against
one of the wings and knocked it out
of plumb, and was obliged to replace it,
while the audience almost laughed out
right and the leading actress, in the midst
of furious anathema, slightly smiled
and as quickly resumed the part of an
infnriated Amazon.
Miss Granger's reputation as an actress
throughout the world, is prinlpally due
to her peerless rend tion of Camille"
which she was to haye performed on
Saturday night, but being unable to OBJ
tain stage settings appropriate, substi-
tuted "Frou Frou," in which she made
her fascinationfelt as she did the night
previous. All unite in the opinion that
to Miss Granger belongs the credit of
bringing to Bozeman the finest dramatic
talent ever seen in our mountains.
Miss Granger expressed much surprise
at the attendance of such large and in
telligent audiences at her performances,
given as they were in hall so utterly
devoid of features calculated to do her
performances Justice, or even make them
attractive. Cooped up in a four-by.five
dressing room, compelled to play with
out stage settings, so necessary to make
her playing effective, and to see large and
appreclative audiences before her, were
anomilies she had never before witnessed.
